This vital new digital reconstruction, overseen by Milestone Films’ Dennis Doros and Amy Heller, brings von Stroheim’s original script to life, and the result is <i>Queen Kelly</i> in its most complete and spectacular form to date.</div><div><br></div><div>Reconstruction: Dennis Doros and Amy Heller, Milestone Film &amp; Video, Harrington Park, NJ.
